We should NEVER align ourselves with any current partisan-politician. Only Independents (Bernie Sanders).

Fuck what the media will say about us! We don't support any pawns in the current system, no matter what they preach. Fuck the most progressive Democrats, you have no idea what their true motive may be; we don't want to be shaped by the current political system. We are revolutionaries, not merely progressives.

Bernie Sanders torpedoed Ron Paul's Audit the Fed legislation, changing it from ongoing and complete audits to only under special circumstances. He may call himself an independent but his actions speak louder.

I agree; the establishment legislature on both sides of the aisle is bound to attempt to co-opt the Occupy Movement, and we need to resist them at all costs. Make it completely clear that the Movement is not aligned with any side of the political spectrum - this is about separating corporate power and politics, and ushering in a system that actually works for us, the other 99% of society.
